In view of the above-mentioned drawbacks of the conventional methods, the present invention has been developed to easily remove plaque, etc. that has adhered to the tongue and effectively eliminate bad breath, while also making it possible to easily and easily remove plaque, etc. that has adhered to the body of the cleaning tool. There is a tongue cleaning tool available that can be used.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained in detail with reference to embodiments shown in the drawings.

In the embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, reference numeral 1 denotes a tongue cleaning tool main body formed in a substantially U-shape from a bar-shaped synthetic resin plate, stainless steel, or the like. Reference numerals 2 and 2 denote grip portions integrally formed with both ends of the tongue cleaning tool main body 1, and anti-slip portions 3 and 3 are formed on the grip portions 2 and 2, respectively.

In the above structure, when brushing teeth after a meal, the grip parts 2, 2 are held in each hand, and the tongue cleaning tool main body 1 is put into the mouth and brought into contact with the upper surface of the back of the tongue. After that, when the cleaning tool main body 1 is pulled out while pressing against the tongue, dirt and the like attached to the tongue can be removed from the inner lower surface of the cleaning tool main body 1.

Next, different embodiments of the present invention shown in FIGS. 4 and 5 will be described. In the description of these embodiments, the same parts as those of the embodiments of the present invention are given the same reference numerals and redundant explanations will be omitted.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 4, the main difference from the embodiment of the present invention is a grip portion 2A.
is composed of a T-shaped grip body 4 whose both ends 2a, 2a are fixed to the inner wall surface of the cleaning tool body 1, and a non-slip part 5 formed at the rear end of this grip body 4. With this configuration, the tongue can be cleaned with one hand.

The main difference between the embodiment shown in FIG. 5 and the embodiment of the present invention is that the cleaning tool body 1 and the grip 2 are formed in the shape of a curved frame of a tennis racket. The same effect can be obtained even if the same effect is obtained.

As is clear from the above description, the present invention has the following effects.
